Two questions for anyone with Hall of Heroes Beach Head

DaveCW2 Happy Camera Fun Time! Offline --> Posts: 1,155 --> Join Date: Nov 2007	Two questions for anyone with Hall of Heroes Beach Head Can he sit? I have the comic-pack BH, and like him quite a bit. The only problem is his lack of hip movement. So, if the HOH Beach Head has that problem fixed, I may actually order one. Also, do his pants colors match the comic-pack one's? Thanks for the assist, gang! Have fun!!! __________________ On a quest to collect and customize the 1985 Joes in Modern Era form. Aaand maybe the Cobras, too. Holy crap! There were five troop builders in 1985 - what am I getting myself into!?!

That being said, I was at a independent toy store in Houston that ordered them. They look good, but were too expensive for stuff I already had. I didnt look closely enough to answer your question tho Dave. __________________ thinktankproduction.com

If it helps, I'll let you know how Beachhead is when I get them. I sure wish that Beachhead had the original head and not the stranger Comic Pack head, though. But at least it doesn't have the ugly, totally-not-Beachhead unmasked head. __________________ RIP Minouche, 1994-2009.

You need a connection in the US to get you 'older' stuff. I'm staying away form the HoH myself simply cuz, I got pretty much what was made both MOC and Loose. Smalljoes.com is your way to go.

Pf. I'm getting the HOH via Legends for cheaper than I would from Smalljoes, with the shipping factored in.

I missed out on all that stuff before, and that new Firefly is leaps and bounds ahead of "knit sweater Firefly". Flint has his badge now, too.

Joes are scarce here, period. I never saw any early waves except at collectible stores that overcharged them anyway. All there is hanging on the shelves these days are excess Wild Bills, the GIJoe and Cobra 5-packs that came out this year and the Greatest Battles DVD set.
